Please explain how UAW doomed Detroit.
a. did they design the cars no one wanted? No b. did they dictate labor terms?. No they negotiated them with management who approved. c. did they force GM to give FIAT $2B to get out of an agreement for GM to buy them d. did they invest billions in Saturn and then let the company wither without new products e. Did they pay management hundreds of millions as the company made an ever downward spiral? No f. Did the UAW tilt the output to all the gas guzzlers No h. Did the UAW design the hardware that wouldn't last and broke all the time. etc.
Tell me how they did it. We made good cars in the '50-'60's with the UAW.
I think you guys listen to much to FOX guys who are really spouting this crap to drive down every working mans wages, so they, the top 1 persent can get an even bigger share of the economy. They already own about 65-75% of all assets.
Why was FOX hyping Tea Parties, so the dumb little guy making under $250K a year would march around to protect the 1 percent who own most everything from paying their fair share of taxes. They put out the distortion that they are paying to much already 45+ percent of their income. The majority of their income comes not from salaries like us; but, from tax free bonds, dividends on stock/capital gains (15% tax rate). The Fox guys and the Freedom Foundationguys must be laughing the a--s off. You really can fool some of the people all of the time. Get them to concentrate and rave about family values, illegal, et-al while picking their pockets. You really can fool some of the people all of the time.
One more question where does the farm bill payout go. The majority go to zip codes in Ny,Ny and Wash. DC. Lot of little farm families there.

Today's Featured Article - Restoring a John Deere 2010 Diesel Tractor - by Jim Nielsen. Following seven years working in California's Silicon Valley, my wife, baby son and I moved back to Australia to retire. We bought a small 'farm' of about 50 acres near Bendigo, in the state of Victoria. I soon found that it would be very useful to have a tractor around the place for things such as grading our long drive and brush-hogging the fields. I was also embarking on planting 1000 eucalyptus trees, and hence I would need a ripper, small disk plow, sprayer etc. to get these things accompli
